tattoos are one of the only ways ive been able to feel ok about my body, like its a piece of my body that i get to chose what it looks like, i have control over it. i want to be covered in tattoos. i have two at the moment, three if u count the shitty stick and poke i did as a 12yo lol. and i have so many plans/ideas for more, if i had the money id be getting tattoos and piercings every week. its one of the only things that actually kinda motivates me to get a job.
one of my favourite quotes from one of my favourite guitarists/humans: "my tattoos are like a scrapbook of my life. sometimes you dont feel comfortable in your own skin, so covering it up with pictures helps." -frank iero. its a simple lil quote but i heavily relate to the last part and it helps me to know that someone i admire so much feels a similar way to me if that makes sense.
also tats are just fuckin awesome, i love seeing other ppls tattoos and finding out the backstory to them, even if its just "oh i got it cuz it looks cool" like fuck yeah dude tell me more
and the amount of different styles and types of artists? its so interesting ahh i could go on forever lol
